Unfortunately, "intent" is a popular tool used by those in positions of privilege and power to absolve themselves from responsibility.https://twitter.com/babahadad/status/829156629438357504 …
One cannot truly know if others even have consciousness, let alone intent. Yet still, it is possible to infer intent.

It's also then, following that same logic, to infer wrongly. But it is not possibly to be wrong about evident consequences.

That's true. Since I'm not interested in punishment or reward, intent isn't an important variable. I'm interested in compassion.

Ultimately, only the user of force can know whether there was intent to punish or cause harm rather than protect.
